Date Baby Due Calculator

Reviewed by Calculator Editorial Team

Calculating your baby's due date is an important step in pregnancy planning. Our due date calculator helps you determine your estimated due date based on your last menstrual period (LMP). This tool provides a quick and accurate way to track your pregnancy timeline.

How to Use This Calculator

Using our due date calculator is simple. Follow these steps:

  1. Enter the date of your last menstrual period (LMP) in the calculator.
  2. Click the "Calculate" button to get your estimated due date.
  3. Review the result and any additional information provided.

The calculator uses standard pregnancy duration assumptions. For most pregnancies, the due date is calculated as 40 weeks (280 days) after the first day of the last menstrual period.

How the Due Date Calculation Works

The due date is calculated based on the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). The standard pregnancy duration is 40 weeks, which is equivalent to 280 days.

Due Date = LMP + 280 days

For example, if your LMP was on January 1, 2023, your due date would be October 31, 2023.

Note: This calculator uses the standard 40-week pregnancy duration. Some medical professionals may use slightly different calculations, but this is the most commonly accepted method.
